Nay and Nay

Really, I don't understand why Clinton is hated by the right so much.  Most of his most recognizible achievments in the last 6 years of his presidency can best be classified as either 'conservative' or libertarian; Welfare reform, defense of marraige, NAFTA, and so on.

Who signed the semi-auto ban?

last six years

He signed that in 1994, when he was still a liberal with a Democratic congress.

Also, his achievements in the first 2 years like the semi-auto ban largely had sunset provisions, while others were struck down or mostly struck down by the Supreme Court, so they were even less than might first appear.

While his right-leaning reforms like NAFTA, DOMA, Telecom reform, welfare reform etc. have generally been permanent or even strengthend by the courts (as with Fox v FCC, 2002).
